I'm also indebted to my readers, Chris Neville and Jay Shockley, for getting as excited about this project as I've been. The staff at the New York Historical Society let me examine a brothel guidebook that hadn't yet been catalogued, which was truly thrilling. Jacqueline Shine, Natasha Vargas-Cooper, and Michelle Legro listened patiently as I talked about 19th century prostitution without complaint. My classmates Jonathan Taylor and Amanda Mullens did the same. The entire staff of Lapham's Quarterly picked up the slack when I was off looking for treasure at various archives. My parents, Peter Serratore and Gina Giambalvo-Glockler, let me fly to their houses to write, in two much-needed escapes from New York. They also proudly tell friends and colleagues all about this thesis without blushing, for which I will always be grateful.

  • A Feminist Perspective on New Orleans Jazzwomen
    A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE ON NEW ORLEANS JAZZWOMEN Sherrie Tucker Principal Investigator Submitted by Center for Research University of Kansas 2385 Irving Hill Road Lawrence, KS 66045-7563 September 30, 2004 In Partial Fulfillment of #P5705010381 Submitted to New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park National Park Service 419 Rue Decatur New Orleans, LA 70130 This is a study of women in New Orleans jazz, contracted by the National Park Service, completed between 2001 and 2004. Women have participated in numerous ways, and in a variety of complex cultural contexts, throughout the history of jazz in New Orleans. While we do see traces of women’s participation in extant New Orleans jazz histories, we seldom see women presented as central to jazz culture. Therefore, they tend to appear to occupy minor or supporting roles, if they appear at all. This Research Study uses a feminist perspective to increase our knowledge of women and gender in New Orleans jazz history, roughly between 1880 and 1980, with an emphasis on the earlier years.
